<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">The role administration form is
accessible via the main menu. Select Admin-&gt;Roles. This menu item

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in"><I><B>Roles Overview</B></I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Roles are required in order to add
users. By default, Speed Test comes with two roles which cannot be
removed, the Admin role and the Web Only role. Both can be renamed,
but cannot be deleted or edited except for the name.

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in"><I><B>Adding a role</B></I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">To add a role, click the plus sign next
to the list of roles. Enter a description and use the up or down
arrows to increase or decrease permissions for each of the
permissions, Environments, Releases, Plans, Users, Roles and Server
Options. Plan permissions also cover suites and test cases. The
maximum (administrative) permissions are VECD, indicating permission
to View, Edit, Create and Delete. Optionally, check the 'Web View
Only' checkbox. Checking this checkbox will cause Speed Test to
ignore any permissions and only permit access to the reporting
application. Since users with this role cannot log into the desktop
application, they will not appear in the list of Testers when
assigning test cases.

<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in"><I><B>Deleting a role</B></I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">To delete a role, click the minus sign
next to the list of roles. The selected role will be permanently
deleted. If one or more users have been assigned this role, the role
cannot be deleted until the users have been assigned a different
role. This action cannot be undone, so use care.

list and click the edit icon at the bottom of the form. All fields,
including the description may be edited.</P>

of the icons may be disabled.
